It surprised me Razor-qt. I have to say that this environment is not
nearly as
complete and comprehensive as Trinity, but memory consumption is
staggering.
That would be a consequence of using Qt4? The choice to remain in Trinity
with Qt3 => TQt3 seems to be a very good decision.

Excellent information! According to the second page, TDE is actually
competitive with (and in some cases surpassing) the traditional
"lightweight" desktop environments. This is a very pleasant surprise for
me; I had no idea that TDE was even in the same range as I do not run
XFCE/LXDE on my systems.
Regarding Razor-qt, yes, AFAIK a large amount of the measured "bloat" is
directly related to the use of Qt4. Other culprits might include heavy
use of relatively clunky system messaging interfaces, though I would
expect more of a performance drain from this than a waste of memory.
Thanks for the links!
